2008 Manga-related Prose Fiction Chart
Because of a tie-in to a famous manga property (or publisher) the following novels earn a spot on my manga charts. Some are light novels (with manga style illustrations), some are straight prose, and some are just here (*cough* Avatar). And a fair chunk is yaoi.
(and I likely missed a few)
